on 2LO London

View in Radio Times

IT is not generally realized, perhaps, how wide a field the ' Industrial North ' offers to the holiday-maker : the thought of miles' of chimney-stacks and cobble-streeted towns is exaggeratedly present in the minds of most people. True, these exist : but you have only to take a short journey out of Manchester, or Macclesfield, or Sheffield, for instance, to find country that, for picturesque. ness and pastoral simplicity, is hard to beat in all England. It is this ' neglected North ' that Mr. H. V. Morton , the well-known journalist and writer on the lesser-known charms of the British Isles, has chosen for his talk tonight.
